Why should I worry about educating my children? Isn't that the school's job?

Yes and no. Yes, our school system's job is to educate our children. However, as parents it is also our responsibility to provide our children with what they need-which includes an education.
While parents can enforce homework and other "school-based" learning, there is something even more important that parents can provide that the schools can't and that is values, ethics, and a sense of purpose. A strong bond between parent and teacher is necessary for a child to not only learn facts and figures, but also learn how to apply these to become a person of character and values.
